INT-ENE-1 Greenhouse Gas Emissions>Page 5> Domestic Hot Water

Domestic Hot water is defined as occupant amenity use (washing hands, bathing, showering, washing dishes, and/or space heating). Thus Domestic Hot Water will not include water for drinking. As per erratum: GEN-00-E-INT1-2091

As noted in the Interiors Technical Manual (pg. 223) “This requirement applies to appliances, office equipment, electronics, and commercial food service equipment. Excluded are HVAC, lighting, and building envelope products”Gym equipment is considered electronic and therefore required to be included in the fit out calculations.

Furthermore, ‘all equipment’ includes any equipment that draws (electrical) power.

For Ene-1.2.2 HVAC Occupancy Sensors where a space is frequently unoccupied throughout each day and are smaller than 7 square meters are not required to have individual active controls capable of sensing space use and therefore the project team can eliminate the occupancy sensors.
